They will eventually merge........................
Tell me, Muse, of the man of many ways, who was driven far journeys, after he had sacked Troy’s secret citadel. Many were they whose cities he saw, whose minds he learned of, many the pains he suffered on his spirit on the wide sea, struggling for his own life and the homecoming of his companions. Even so he could not save his companions, hard though he strove to; they were destroyed by their own wild recklessness...
Everything is relative, especially when it comes to Big Tech, but Tim Cook is the best, brightest, most decent and most straight shooting of that bunch of CEOs.
Good!
Bankrupt Facebook.
Not with a bang, but a whimper.
Everything will be Taco Bell.
This is the real secret to FB income stream.
Most ISP use something similar.
If your cable modem has a unified modem, router, wifi or worse a unified phone hard line, you are making your ISP richer off your surfing.
Facebook’s market cap of nearly $1 Trillion boggles my mind. They produce nothing of value to society or human flourishing. If they disappeared tomorrow, you could easily argue the world would be much improved.
History will eventually show them be the 2020’s poster child for ridiculous, asinine social-media valuations.
One hyena attacks another - I tend to favor Apple in such disputes because they’ve been somewhat more respectful of individual privacy than other Big Tech companies (before their NeuralHash debacle, anyway). Facebook is the worst of the worst - anything that harms them, I will be cheering.

The enemy of my enemy is still an effing enemy.
I agree, but it means we're in bigger trouble than we thought. :^) He has remarkable skills at timing production and product announcements in concert with the supply chain. Even so, the Chinese orders for the new iPhone line crashed their ordering system in China.
If congress wasn’t bought and paid for, we could have had anti-tracking 1-click opt-out (of everything) 10 years ago. And we should have it now.
I exited Facebook last November and have quite enjoyed life. I no longer feel a compulsion to keep up with my ‘friends’ and I’m no longer at threat of censorship by scumbag leftist ‘fact checkers’.
Ditch Facebook. You can live without it. Trust me.
Not if you use a good pay VPN.
Apple backed off on their "auditing" idea for private graphic files of customers. I don't keep anything on the so-called cloud, but if they resume that plan, the whole board needs to be fired.
Then they make everyone look like superstars with unlimited reach(Coke enhances your personality)
Then they scale back the reach(Step on said Coke)
Then they charge for more access and then sell advertising(Upgrade to heroin)
